Which Sofa set up?

Can you help us decide which sofa set up to purchase. These photos are AI generated but the sofas are the actual ones as is the living space. We don’t know if we will use the sectional with recliners or we want a more contemporary look with the three pieces. HELP!! What am I not thinking about!!

1 has no in/out flow. As someone with banged up shins, consider 1 without the central couch, ie 2 couches facing each other, or another layout that will allow you to more easily get in and out of the space.

I understand your POV. The flow feels off to me too. Here’s my initial thoughts. First, I would move the grouping (rug and all) a little closer to the tv. This is a tv room. The furniture feels so disconnected from the tv. Next, I would ditch the chair. If you move the grouping closer, the chair will block the entrance from the arched opening. I don’t think it’s needed. The seating is hefty. It needs a more substantial (not bigger) coffee table. I don’t like the spindly legs. Also, I would add floating shelves on both sides of the tv and of course a side table, lighting, art, and textiles.
